What are you expecting to see with BF3? (Page 1 of 2)

BC2 with modding support and physics that make everything look as light as a feather so it still feels like BF2 but with better visuals and sounds.

Also, I WANT PERKS AND WEAPON SKINS AND NUKES AND AC-130s AND COMPLETE DISREGARD FOR VETERANS!  Oh wait, Modern Warfare 2 beat them to it.  Curses!

RIP Battlefield

[rantmode] Its sad to see how so many game developers slowly slide away from the thing that made their games good in the first place...
Kinda like glaciers, its cool that they move and all, but when they dissolve in the oceans its just not cool anymore.... you know?
Some games that kinda prove what i mean:

COD4 and MW2 (what ando and bullace said)
Empire Earth 3 (extreme case of "what the fuck were they thinking")
Supreme Commander 2 (see EE3)
BC and BC2 (and, if Bullace&co are right, BF3)
The Sims 3 (like, seriously)
Microsoft's X Simulator (BOAT simulator? TRAIN simulator? what the fuck)
TF2(fucking unlocks piss me off hot damn)
Empire: Total War (how fun is watching soldiers shooting other soldiers? rome and medieval were decent because of the AWESOME SWORD VIOLENCE but this shit is outrageously boring)
etc

The list would have gone on if i had the cash to buy the rest (or the time/dedication to DL them(super mega slow connection)), trust me.
Im just really pissed off that most game devs dont look for their own experience-creation passion something when they have an idea for a new game.... IF they ever get a decent idea, really.
Kinda like how the entire US and A are against the health care reform that was proposed just because they are too fucking cheap.
Like money really matters when you're about to die fucking americunts
[/rantmode]
*sobs a little and goes back to playing the SC2 beta*
dont get offended by what was in the rantmode tags or i kill you

Rawr, I believe this has to do with all the rich health insurance companies trying to buy their way out of universal health care.  Their current system is a money making system, it literally was designed to work like this: The more people they deny treatment for (even live-saving operations), the more money they will make.

I recently started playing vanilla again as I wanted to get my fix of team-based warfare without launching up TF2 or downloading the PR update, and damn it's pretty fun.  Even though communication is rare, everybody just kind of knows how to play in a team.  It's rare you come across from obvious cod or cs player who constantly trolls other players about how bad they are or what they are doing wrong, everybody just plays and has fun.

Despite the signs of a "shallowing" of the BF series over the past few releases, I believe DICE is smart enough to give the BF2 players the REAL BF gameplay in BF3.

(As for VALVe, I haven't lost any "faith" in them since the early release of L4D2.  That's one wrong move (if you don't count the nuisance that is steam) among years of success and win.)

Dice is, but is EA?

You just described 1943 but added in halo and made the slot count an uneven number.

Yea,i can agree with you as Valve is the maker of alot a awesome games,Garry's Mod was the best! But EA had fucked up every game they have ever made.BF:1943 sucked cause it was like Infinity Ward's IWnet from MW2,it was a match-meaking server,and only 4 fucking maps,come the fuck on! And i hated BF 2142! That was so gay! No tactics,not TEAMWORK! No nothing,there was no good mods either!

All of this is incorrect. BF2142 focuses on tactics and teamwork more than any its precedents.

Squad leader:
- equipped with squad beacons to allow squad members to spawn on specific locations
- equipped with tracking vehicle that helps detect enemies and opens fire against them, requiring more squad members to use depending on which vehicle
- "Field upgrades" give you temporary unlocks for following squad leader orders

Vehicles:
- Ability to spawn in APCs and Transports placed on the field by team mates on titan mode
- Walker has AA gun that can only be effectively used by a passenger and a driver following the air vehicle

Scoring system:
- Lots of points for throwing EMPs at vehicles to disable enemies so others can kill

Titans:
- Almost impossible to take on solo and rushing the core requires many players; can't win a game by one player standing at a flag

Commanders:
- Now equipped with EMP strike to help team mates take down a vehicle whore
- UAV time reduced to prevent solo kills

Weapons:
- Infantry sonar makes support player a valuable asset while having a reduced radius
- Vehicle sonar detects enemy vehicles with same UAV radius
- Ghost recon unlock allows a whole squad to transverse an area with a false point on any enemy sonar / UAV

Mods:
- First Strike
- Some in production, definitely not CF2142, though

BF2142 is a great game. Everything is balanced and you can run around without a jet whore dropping 2 bombs on you and flying back to reload.

Yup, that's why it probaly is more dead then Sbx does.

RRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA THERE IS SO MUCH LACK OF KNOWLEDGE IN THIS THREAD

GO PLAY BF2 VANILLA AND LOOK AT THE SERVER LIST

IT WAS BY MADE GARRY NEWMAN, NOT VALVE

THAT'S NOT TRUE I DON'T EVEN

IT'S A FUCKING XBOX LIVE ARCADE/PSN GAME, NOT TO MENTION THE AGE OF SERVERS ON CONSOLES IS OVER, GET OVER IT

There are so many things wrong with these statements that even raging in all caps does not express how remarkably wrong you are. I'm not even going to argue with the "NO TACTICS NOT TEAMWORK" shit because everybody knows that's wrong.

Instead what I'm going to prove you wrong about is the mods statement.  My argument is short, simple, and goes as follows;

BF2 would not be ANYTHING like it is today if not even exist if it weren't for the mod Desert Combat for BF1942.
